Leo Messi buys a mansion in Eivissa for 11 million with urban problems

Leo Messi has bought a villa in Eivissa for 11 million euros in an irregular urban situation. It does not have a license to finish the work or a certificate of occupancy since a previous owner built several illegal rooms in the garage of the property, which prevents the legalization of the mansion if the works done without permission are not reversed, according to El Periódico from Ibiza.

The mansion is in the municipality of Sant Josep, in Cala Tarida, on common rustic land. It has 568 meters built distributed on a ground floor of 420 square meters, in addition to a basement of 16.79 meters, an annex of 38.85 meters and a pool of 92 meters. The farm has an area of ​​just over 16,000 square meters.

The soccer player acquired the house on February 3 of this year without being aware of the urban problems of the mansion, which have been known after the purchase. For some time now, a team of lawyers has been working with the Sant Josep City Council for the total legalization of the home.

The building is legalizable and will have all the permits as long as the added works that were done later and that did not appear in the initial project are eliminated. The solution is to remove the additions in the form of rooms that were made in the villa's garage and that have prevented the granting of all planning permits.

In the purchase of the house, a lawyer for Leo Messi appeared before a notary, although the ownership of this house is in the name of the company Edificio Rostower and its parent company Limecu, which is the acronym for the name of the Argentine soccer player. Leo Messi Cuccittini. Both are represented by Rodrigo Messi, brother of the Argentine striker.

The soccer player has spent part of his vacations in the villa on the island despite the urban problems that are now in the legalization phase, as can be seen in images from his Instagram account, There he celebrated his 35th birthday with numerous guests, some of them players of the Argentine national team.
